Funny Name

[M O P]

;) I was reading some family tree books looking for baby names. They're great places to look by the way and if you don't have any of your own, your parents, grandparents or local library might.

Anyway, I found what I thought was a pretty cool and different boys name "Burken". The next thing I thought of though was Wills, as in Burke and Wills. :D When I looked at the top of the page I saw that this poor Burken's surname was Wills! He was born in the early 1900's but I noticed in brackets he was referred to as Jack.

Just wanted to share this little funny:)

There's nothing you can do about that at all is there- except maybe start calling yourself Rosie!

My mother in law is Scottish (so is dh and all his family actually) Anyway, it's a tradition in Scotland to give the mother's maiden name as a middle name, hence my MIL's name is Colina Brown (don't know her maiden name).

She married DH's father who's last name is Cowe...so now she's Colina Brown Cowe!!

My grandmothers maiden name was Joyce Knott - this is ok unless you say it quickly!!
